Judy

Details

Judy was a liver and white English pointer, mascot of Royal Navy gunboats Gnat and Grasshopper, and the only animal ever made prisoner of war: in 1942 she became Japanese prisoner number '81A-Medan'. This book tells the story of Judy and how, whether dragging survivors from a torpedoed ship or scavenging food for her starving fellow inmates, she was cherished by the Allied servicemen in the Japanese camps. After the war, Judy was awarded the Dickin medal. Off-mint.
